Presented by Claire Mauer, LMNCC - 5 CE Hours
Workshop Description:
While EMDR is best known
for its treatment of trauma, it has developed into a comprehensive
psychotherapy approach that treats a broad spectrum of presenting issues across
clinical populations. This workshop is for practitioners who are interested in
learning more about this highly effective, evidence-based approach that can be
readily integrated into one’s clinical practice. Participants will learn how
the Three- Pronged Protocol is applied to identify and process past experiences
that inform the client’s current symptoms, neutralize present triggers, and
establish more adaptive responses for the future. Case studies will be
presented to illustrate this powerful and effective psychotherapy approach.
Learning
